Dr. Eugene C. Wittenstrom

Dear Jay and Lee Ann,
I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. He was my doctor for several surgeries and I could always rest easy knowing that Doc Wittenstrom was in charge.
Please extend my condolences to your mom.

With sincere sympathy,
Geri Yaccino,

Dear Barb and Family,
It is with much saddness that I send our sincere condolences at this most difficult time. You have been in my thoughts daily and after receiving the email, I had a hard time sleeping that night...the fact that we recently enjoyed such a great week with both of you at Lake Geneva and how quickly life can change. I am looking forward to being with you all on the 25th of Oct. and will be happy to do whatever I can for you when I am in Illinois. I will be happy to stay overnight with you if you wish.
I know Gene lived a full life, loved his family, his sailing and boating and his profession. Perhaps he and Dick are having a good visit together now and will be watching over us.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you, Barb.
The obituary shared what a great man Gene was. He will be greatly missed.
Love, Ruth and Family

Thank you so much to everyone to stopped by, called, emailed or otherwise sent their condolences. It means a lot to all of us.

Barbara, Jay, Laura, Lee Ann,Wayne and the rest of the family.

Barbara, We are so sorry to hear about this sudden loss. We are so appreciative of yours and Gene's generosity in sharing your home on Lake Geneva with us this summer. We are grateful we were able to meet both of you and share in a very special place that you both loved. We will remember you in our prayers and send hugs with Mom when she comes your way in the next few weeks.
Thinking of all of you,
Sincererely ,

My deepest sympathy to his family. I had been a patient of his until I moved to WA state.
Dr. Wittenstrom was always very caring to all his patients and most of all while under his care you were number one. He will be grately missed and may the wonderful memories help bring peace during this difficult time.
God Bless,

Dear Barbara and family,
We were deeply saddened to hear about Gene. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. We treasure the brief time we were able to spend with him. May your faith and your memories comfort you at this very difficult time. With love, Randy, Elisa, Nick, Jessica, & Jason Wolfe

Barbara and family -
So sorry to hear of Gene's death. He was a lovely man. I haven't been able to join in many LSSI functions for a time, due to my work and the serious illness of my youngest son, but I have fond memories of Gene from past LSSI events. Blessings and Peace -

Dear Barb, I am so shocked and so sorry. He supported the Network so well in our early years. It made me happy to know that he was a member of the LGYC...good memories at a sad time. Blessed be, Jody Hedberg

I am so saddened to hear about the sudden passing of Eugene. I was an Elgin High School classmate and also a past patient of his. He was the best in my book!

Sorry to lose another classmate. Our sympathy to the Family of Eugene.

We are so very sad to hear about Dr. Wittenstrom's sudden passing. I worked for him at Fox Valley Orthopaedics for approx 10 years. He was a great man, a great doctor, and his patients just loved him...as did those who worked for him. I know he will be terribly missed by many people. Our most sincere sympathy goes out to Barb, Jay, LeeAnn and the rest of the family. You are in our thoughts and prayers. May he rest in peace.

Memories of a younger day - sad to see us go.

We are very sad to read about Dr. Wittenstroms sudden passing away. Both my husband and I had been patients of his for years. He was a great doctor, and he had a wonderful personality! So very sorry, please accept our deepest of sympathys.
